New Adventures New Possibilities

Hello Followers I would first like to say Happy New Years and I wish you all much love and success in 2011. Yes the blog is back up and operating as of today January 10,2011. I am sorry for leaving everyone who really got interested in what I had to post and discuss but I'm back baby. I want to discuss my new business venture and my new project coming soon. With much thought and prayer, I've decided to open my own catering business. I will be catering all types of events, ranging from small birthday parties to any event with up to 200 guests as of now. I will be providing a range of different foods and possibly special cocktails for each event. I am also in the works with two of by best friends to bring to you all the Vitamin T Show which will be aired in February 2011 on YouTube. We will be discussing a range of topics about our gay community  from social events, to entertainment news and politics that are not frequently aired in the daily, commonly viewed news/media. We are extremely excited about this show and hopefully we can get a great deal of support from all who watch. I want to thank you all for your continued support of this blog and our up and coming show and I wish you all love and great health.

If anyone is interested in having a special event catered by "Dishing Derek's Catering Service" please email me at dereksdish@gmail.com . Thanks Again and I hope you all have a great week and a wonderful New Year!

Do I not fit in?

                                                       You know I have been open and out about my sexuality, learned and observed a number of different things about my community, but it still baffles me that our own community is still so small minded and competitive for no reason. I recently lost about 15 lbs and its funny how I now get more attention from my own community. I mean people seem to have more of an interest in me since I loss a few lbs. Now I know this story isn't one of ground breaking news or uncommon of a person to share but I feel it is my duty to bring more awareness about things that concern me about our community. I would like to know when and where did gay men feel it was okay to judge each other based upon our appearance/stance? I may get a lot of heat from this but I feel it is worse in the black gay community. I feel as if it's all a competition for most people, trying to get the finest, sexiest, richest man out there. Once you do find that special someone who fits everything you think you wanted, most realize that these men feel they have so many other options that they need not be tied down to one person, even if this one person does everything they possibly can to keep the opposite happy. All that time they spent turning the "less attractive" and/or heavier guys down who would have kept them happy, they choose to take the superficial route and end up with a man who has had his thrill and is now on to the next. Those same people who choose these sexy men and are now unhappy in there own lives will put on such a front and a mask while out in public and still have the nerve to talk about others appearances as if they are not even worthy to be apart of the "Elite" gay community. Am I loosing my mind or is this what our next generation will have to use as their text books and study guides? If so, then we have so much more work to do. I would love to see the day, especially in Atlanta when all walks of gay life that being heavy, built, White, Spanish, Asian, and Black can all coexist in the same party scenes and social settings. Is this dream unrealistic?

I would really love to hear from anyone who feels like I am loosing my mind or from people who agree with me

Wow...A Must See-Marsha Ambrosius

Kaoz..Interesting

On Christmas day Kaoz posted on his youtube page a brand new video to his widely popular song "(Keep It) Human (rmx) feat. Loren Jamal." The song is dedicated to each and every young adult, teen and person that we have lost and may continue to lose as a result of the increasing acts of violence & hate that eat away at so many of us, internal and external. Hate based on class, race, size, "difference," bullying, discrimination, disenfranchisement, disappointment, despair. The message is: "It doesn't just get better...Know that you are not alone..."

Portuguese Model Kills Homosexual for idiotic reason

Portuguese model Renato Seabra has confessed to the grisly murder of gay activist and fashion journalist Carlos Castro, whose mutilated body was found in a posh midtown NYC hotel over the weekend. Seabra told police that he used a corkscrew to sever Castro's testicles in order to free the older man of his "homosexual demons." Seabra added that he himself was "not gay anymore."

Seabra was charged with second-degree murder, police said Monday. Seabra and Castro came to New York from their native Portugal and by all accounts were a couple - but Seabra appears unable to admit that, police sources said. "He said he did it to get rid of [Castro's] homosexual demons," one of the police sources said. Police believe the two men had dated for several months, even though Seabra's family insisted the tanned hunk is straight. "My son was not Carlos Castro's lover," Seabra's mother, Odília Pereirinha, told a Portuguese TV station. "From the beginning, he never hid his sexuality, which is heterosexual." Castro was a high-profile gay activist and society columnist in his home country. Seabra's claim to fame was as a pretty boy contestant on a top model reality show.


Seabra remains in a psychiatric ward in Bellevue Hospital where he was treated for self-inflicted cuts to his wrists.
